Jolie Crowder is the owner of this independent (non franchise) food preparation establishment in Reston. Why did we decide to review a Reston based company? We decided to review it because many of you told us that you live in Loudoun, and work in and around Reston. When we arrived, we noticed that the ambiance inside was created true to the name Zen. Soft brown colored walls, comfortable green sofas immediately calm you and transport you to a different place. Inside is large and roomy with S shaped long counters that can accommodate 24 people all at once.

We tried Shrimp Scampi Skewers, Spaghetti Pizza Bake, Pork Tenderloin with Guava Glaze and Cinnamon Honey Chicken Tenders. Our favorite was Pork Tenderloin with Guava Glaze, which was packed with the right amount of jalapeno-powered kick. We also tried a side dish to die for, Smoky Mashed Potatoes with Chipotle and Gouda. It is a must side dish with every meat-based meal. Dinner Zen’s prices are very reasonable with 4 meals costing $92. Jolie who is a former nurse with a long career working for non-profits, made a partnership alliance with Health e-Lunch Kids. If your child’s school does not allow Health e-Lunch to be distributed at the school, you can pick up your meals at Dinner Zen. If you work or live around Reston, Dinner Zen is a great location for you to try out meal preparation establishments.
